Who Can Be Against Me
The O.C. Supertones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It seems like everyone I help just falls
And how I need someone to make me feel assured
I don't need anyone if you're on my side, Lord
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
I say, hey, who can be against me?
(No one)
No matter how hard I try I always fail, I'll never be like Christ
I know I'll struggle until the day, the very day I die
And how I need someone to make me feel assured
I don't need anyone if you're on my side, Lord
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
I say, hey, who can be against me?
(No one)
God look at me, I'm just a man
But you tell me I'm not just a man
You're so hard to understand
After all I'm just a man
God you tell me not to doubt
But I'm always plagued by doubt
And you always help me out
I'm so ashamed
God look at me, I'm just a man
But you tell me I'm not just a man
You're so hard to understand
After all I'm just a man
God you tell me not to doubt
But I'm always plagued by doubt
And you always help me out
I'm so ashamed
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
And I say, hey, who can be against me?
(No one)

It seems like everything I touch just falls to pieces
I feel like everything I do ends up being a failure
It seems like everyone I help just falls
Whenever I try to assist someone, they still struggle
And how I need someone to make me feel assured
I'm searching for someone to provide me with confidence
I don't need anyone if you're on my side, Lord
As long as God is with me, I don't require any other support
I say, hey, who can be against me?
I'm questioning who could possibly oppose me when God is on my side
No matter how hard I try I always fail, I'll never be like Christ
I'm aware that I'm imperfect and will never be as perfect as Jesus
I know I'll struggle until the day, the very day I die
I understand that life is a continual battle and I will face obstacles until I pass away
God look at me, I'm just a man
I'm acknowledging my human limitations and flaws
But you tell me I'm not just a man
God reminds me that I am capable of so much more with His help
You're so hard to understand
God's ways and thoughts are beyond human comprehension
After all I'm just a man
Despite my weaknesses, I am still valuable and loved by God
God you tell me not to doubt
I'm aware that God desires me to trust Him completely
But I'm always plagued by doubt
However, I still struggle with doubts and uncertainties
And you always help me out
God is always there to guide and assist me
I'm so ashamed
I feel guilty for my lack of faith and trust in God

Really needed this song this week. I don't know if the OC supertones guys ever read this, but just know your music helps.

@popcornkiller8
christian music from the 90s was the best. some of the best bands and singers come from that time
@kaden66
My favorite song ever. Out of everything I have ever heard, this beats it all.
@Mr3dPHD
This is by far their best song....and album for that matter. If you like this you should check out Five Iron Frenzy's first album "Upbeats and Beatdowns". Its equally awesome.
@BryanHectic
I used to be crazy into ska back in '05, I was an angsty little Christian-hating Agnostic 18 year old, but I still couldn't deny these guys' instrumental talent. SINCE THEN, I've become much more tolerant and accepting of different religions and beliefs(for the better, I'd say). But yeah, this was a blast from the past.
@kaden66
reality distorted: It's the best because I remember listening to this when I was four years old. I do listen to music. I listen to a lot of music.
@Westerngun
I love this album and this song really helps me.
@Mojotones
